The rock faces slant downward on the north slope, making it the more difficult climb on the upper sections. At least on the north side you can essentially trek it all the way up the Rongbuk East glacier until reaching the icewall, rather than having to start out on the south side by negotiating the Khumbu icefall.

Is the North route more logistically hard, permits and such, aside from climbing difficulty? And therefore more expensive to do? As others have said, while the South might be less difficult in purely technical terms, you'd need to consider the higher risks from overcrowded lock-jams. I watched your video of your two Everest climbs and it looked as though you were the sole client with your guides on your North side climb. ---Another late-comer to high altitude mountaineering.
@eightsummits3 жыл бұрын
Yes, logistically the North route is harder. The Chinese issue the climbing permits and often do not make it easy. They also control what you can bring to Base Camp, including books and videos. The Chinese team also fixes the lines on the mountain so you are at their mercy. When I summited in 2014, we followed the Chinese line fixing team up the mountain because they were so late in fixing lines. The North approach used to be less expensive, but now I think the cost is about the same.

Question for anybody who knows: Assuming a climber has O2 tanks, does that give him/her any added time in the “death zone”? Or are the cold, air pressure and altitude potentially lethal factors in themselves? Thanks if anybody knows.
@donaaa3 жыл бұрын
Having extra O2 is a necessity as the oxygen up there is 1/3 of that at sea level. However this doesn't give a climber exta time in the death zone or the summit as the temperature, altitude and pressure there is so low that humans aren't built to function in that condition. These factors cause ape or ace which results in the death of many climbers.

Just wondering why the three steps are used. Norton 1924 by-passed them and even Messner did so on his solo tour in 1980. Why has this not become common practice?
@eightsummits3 жыл бұрын
It’s almost always safer and easier to move up on a ridgeline than traversing on a steep, icy, unstable face below the ridgeline. On all my alpine climbs, I found the traverses on steep faces the most terrifying. For professional climbers, like Norton & Messner, it didn't make a difference. The three steps on the Notheast ridge are formidable, but safe, as long as you have the energy reserves to keep moving. The Second Step has three ladders, which really helps. I found the Hillary Step on the South Approach relatively easy. If I had to traverse below the Hillary Step, I probably would have turned around. The fall into Nepal or Tibet would have been over 7,000 feet.
